Status Quo Synagogue, Historic synagogue in Târgu Mureș, Romania.
The Status Quo Ante Synagogue stands at 24 Aurel Filimon Street, featuring Gothic Revival, Moorish Revival, and Romanesque Revival architectural elements, including gothic rosettes and dome structures.
Built between 1899 and 1900 under architect Jakob Gartner's supervision, the synagogue emerged during a period when the Jewish population of Târgu Mureș reached over 5,000 members.
The Torah ark contains memorial plaques for Holocaust victims, while the interior displays intricate wall and ceiling decorations reflecting various religious architectural influences.
The synagogue accommodates 552 seats divided between separate men's and women's sections, making it suitable for regular religious services and community gatherings.
Major renovations completed in 2000 restored the original architectural details of this eclectic structure, which marked the local Jewish community's shift from Orthodox Judaism.
